Products used in the Peach Bourbon Smash
What type of bourbon is best for the Peach Bourbon Smash?
For the Peach Bourbon Smash, a bourbon that has a smooth and balanced flavor profile works best. Look for a bourbon that isn’t too heavy on the oak or smoke, as it should complement rather than overpower the delicate sweetness and fruity notes of the peach jam. A mid-range proof (around 80-90 proof) is ideal for maintaining a good balance between strength and flavor.
Can I use fresh peaches instead of peach jam?
Yes, you can use fresh peaches instead of peach jam in the Peach Bourbon Smash. To substitute, muddle a few ripe peach slices with a small amount of simple syrup (to replace the sweetness of the jam). This variation will offer a fresher, fruitier flavor and a slightly different texture but will be just as delicious.
How can I adjust the cocktail if I find it too sweet or too tart?
If the Peach Bourbon Smash is too sweet, you can reduce the amount of peach jam or add a bit more lemon juice to enhance the tartness. Conversely, if the cocktail is too tart, increase the peach jam slightly or add a touch of simple syrup. Adjusting the balance of lemon juice and peach jam allows you to customize the drink to your taste preference, ensuring a perfect balance of sweet and sour.
